- Abstract
The composition of hydrocarbons (aliphatic and polycyclic aromatic) is studied in the surface layer of bottom sediments of the Ivankovo Reservoir. Their concentrations are found to be high both per dry mass and in the composition of Corg. The concentration range was 0.42 to 28.15% for Corg, 141.9 to 3451.8 μg/g for aliphatic hydrocarbons (0.2–51.2% Corg), and 28.2–9161 ng/g for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ((0.04–6.58) × 10−3 % Corg). The distribution of hydrocarbons is shown to be determined not only by the lithologic type of sediments, but also by their input from petroleum and pyrogenic sources.
